NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.

The Central Contraceptive Procurement project's purpose is to centrally procure quality condoms for all HIV prevention partners such as 1) Mulu-I & Mulu-II; 2) Preventive Care Package for HIV/AIDS distributed to HIV-positive individuals; 3) Targeted condom promotion & distribution; 4) other PEPFAR & FMOH (facility and community-based) programs as needed. Target populations are most-at-risk populations & all HIV-positive individuals. It is national coverage with a focus on high HIV prevalence sites. The objectives are 1) efficiently distribute the condoms through the existing PSI distribution network; 2) coordinate procurement efforts with other donors and partners including the USAID health team, Pharmaceuticals Funding Supply Agency, DKT, UNFPA, and other major condom donors to ensure cost efficiency; 3) ensure quality assurance of condoms, manufacturing and distribution, and supportive supervision from USAID/Ethiopia and Washington. This is aligned with the GHI HSS: Commodity and Logistics Systems strategy and it contributes to the prevention programs of PEPFAR. The procurement and distribution of condoms is a core activity for prevention. Actual population coverage will depend on funding level and condom promotion efforts to increase usage rates. No PEPFAR required indicators are applicable to this activity; however progress will be tracked in-country. The project procurement is based on the available funding, estimates of universal need and USG contribution to the national condom strategy (under revision by FMOH with PEPFAR support), and M&E on the country pipeline for condoms and arrived as per the required schedule. The transition plan is in line with the PEPFAR prevention transition plan to the government.

Mechanism Target Information

Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.

This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
